My Title Design, in Details

 In deciding how I will design my font, I have concluded that no matter what font I use, it will stay the same font for the title as it will for the credits. I am between 3 fonts at the moment. Since this is an opening set in a pre-teen's life, I wanted the font to be funky and fun. All of the following fonts were found on Microsoft Word at no cost.

The first option is the Jokerman font. The reason this font called out to me is because it reminds me of bubble letters that I would make on the poster board for every science fair project in middle school. It doesn't have any straight lines and it kind of flows.
The next font is Curlz MT. Like the Jokerman font, this too has no straight lines. It also has a lot of swirls that I automatically associate with youth and patterns that they use in clothing and jewelry.
The final font is Ravie. This feels like a good mix of both Curlz MT and Jokerman. It doesn't have any straight lines and has a few swirls. This still cultivates a youthful feeling that I associate with 2000's movies like Legally Blonde and Thirteen Going on Thirty.

To conclude, I will be using the Ravie font for my title and my credits in the opening. I will be using this font because I like how thick it is and how funky it is.

  Due to school being canceled because of the unforeseeable Hurricane Ian, my partner and I decided it was safest to stay home while the storm passed over us. With that being said, we still took time to set up and charge our Switches. We filmed our first two scenes individually, and we sent pictures to agree on camera placement and lighting. We were able to document this in a series of photos. We cleaned our designated filming areas, wore the clothes we aforementioned, and set our phones on a stable place to film. In order to choose between multiple shots, we did different takes that were each about five seconds. We later video called each other to discuss the best possible shot for the first two scenes. Since music would later be placed over the scenes (and therefore the entire commercial) it didn't matter if there was diegetic sound in the scenes. This could include sounds of doors opening and closing, animals walking, or ruffling. This is the first scene, and I am playing Animal...

Props:  In alliance with the free-spirited professional music video, I will be using a car as a prop, my brother's bongos and keyboard, and maybe my guitar. Costume:  I will look through my own wardrobe to get inspiration for the video. Around two weeks ago at school, there was a throwback Thursday-themed spirit day and I so happened to have decided to be the 80s. If I decide to change my prior wardrobe a bit, it will probably be small changes like accessories and bigger hair. Schedule:   11/17/22- the storyboard will be finished, and I will have a clearer vision of what to plan for. 11/22/22- a set list is made, travel arrangments are set, and all needed props are packed 11/26/22- first day of filming, will consist of the lip-synching portions of the video 11/28/22- second day of filming, I will film car scenes and potentially planes taking off. If I cannot get a shot of planes flying, my next best option would be to get any type of animal in its natural state. 11/29/22-...

Production Blog 2: The Roller Rink

Image
 One of my inspirations for this music video was Stranger Things, which is set in the 80s. One of the scenes from the first episode of season 4 was at a roller rink. My best friend, CeCe, loves to skate and had a small party at Galaxy Skateway on Saturday to celebrate her birthday. She wanted to teach me to skate, which didn't go well. Nonetheless, she skated her heart away. I tried to get footage while I was on the rink for a POV shot, but they didn't allow phones while on the rink. Instead, I took a video directly behind the rink border. This location was the perfect set choice that I didn't choose. The neon lights captured the brightness of the 80s, and the flashing lights helped to cover the fact that everyone there was not wearing the wardrobe of the 80s. I will edit this clip down in the final product, and I am considering adding a grainy filter over it to add a nostalgic feel like the duck and car shots. One of the takes I did is for a tilt movement from the ceiling ...
